Critic Reviews for Tribeca: Season 1
All Critics (8) | Top Critics (6) | Fresh (8) | Rotten (0)
De Niro is aiming high with Tribeca, but the early results are wildly uneven. Fishburne alone is worth the price of admission to the premiere, but episode two about a homeless man (Lang) is an exercise in pretentiousness.
Every edition of this new series may not be recommended, but the anthology concept is a refreshing step for TV programming.
The show is attracting impressive talent. The direction is stylish and the New York City flavor piquant. But so far the scripts have been of a lofty, ponderous nature.
The merging of certain characters at just the right times requires some awkward script conveniences. Yet Tribeca has enormous potential on many levels.
As long as Tribeca continues to display the ability to capture the heady mix of light and darkness that makes New York tick, the show will have the power to exhilarate.
Tribeca is itself a handsome carved box in which a good many talented people appear to have invested a great deal of themselves. How much will it hold? Based on this first look, a lot.
